power outage

 9am Sunday… It’s overcast and a bit cold and the power is out so we are huddled in our camper wishing for coffee. We aren’t set up for much boondocking so our battery power is limited plus we only have a bit of water in our tank. We need a ‘whole trailer’ generator!


We could see on the hydro map that the outage doesn’t extend into Kingston so Carm went into town for Hot Coffee. We were up early and desperate for coffee!


Last night was the potluck so picnic tables were gathered from every site and arranged in a long row, a dining tent had tables for food. We were only 1 trailer over so could hear if the dogs were barking - I only heard Lupa a few times when a dog walked past but, otherwise, silence. :-)


near the end of the day…


There were no rally events planned for today so we just mooched around chatting with people for much of the day. I took the dogs for several long walks, some by myself, some with Carm and one with Marilyn and Mark. My legs are exhausted from so many walks! And the dogs are getting slower and slower - I think their legs are getting tired too, although Lupa is still pretty alert.


This afternoon a bunch of us gathered at Susan and Bert’s site right across from ours so I could listen in on the dogs again. We chatted through the afternoon and suddenly it was 5:30! I quickly fed the dogs, we took them for a walk, then Carm drove off to A&W for some burgers. 


I’m pretty much done for the day! 



Awesome!


“Adia finally pooping!”

“no rain”

“power back early”

“huge cups of coffee from Tim Hortons”
